[Bug 1337437] Re: maas needs utopic support

[Julian Edwards]

That diff is bogus, it won't apply to trunk as the enum was moved.

Also, we should *not* be using python-distro-info please; the list of
OSes and releases is driven by images imported on the clusters and thus
ultimately the simplestreams data for available images.

There's another bug somewhere (my search-fu is failing me right now)
about removing that enum entirely and replacing it with information that
comes from the cluster controllers, as they are the ultimate arbiter of
what can be installed.  A lot of work was done towards this goal at the
coding sprint in March, but there was no time to finish it.  But
basically there is code elsewhere that polls all the clusters and gets
their supported OS releases and combines to a single list.  This just
needs hooking up in that drop-down.

Then, the enum-based code in
provisioningserver/drivers/osystem/ubuntu.py can be removed entirely.
